curl/tests/data/test45, branch master

Replaced 127.0.0.1 with %HOSTIP where possible

2007-09-14T19:32:31+00:00

Convert (most of) the test data files into genuine XML. A handful still

2007-01-23T02:25:56+00:00

are not, due mainly to the lack of support for XML character entities
(e.g. & => & ).  This will make it easier to validate test files using
tools like xmllint, as well as edit and view them using XML tools.

Venkat Akella found out that libcurl did not like HTTP responses that simply

2006-11-25T13:32:04+00:00

responded with a single status line and no headers nor body. Starting now, a
HTTP response on a persistent connection (i.e not set to be closed after the
response has been taken care of) must have Content-Length or chunked
encoding set, or libcurl will simply assume that there is no body.

To my horror I learned that we had no less than 57(!) test cases that did bad
HTTP responses like this, and even the test http server (sws) responded badly
when queried by the test system if it is the test system. So although the
actual fix for the problem was tiny, going through all the newly failing test
cases got really painful and boring.

Modified the default HTTP headers used by libcurl:

2005-05-11T09:52:59+00:00

A) Normal non-proxy HTTP:

 - no more "Pragma: no-cache" (this only makes sense to proxies)

B) Non-CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:

 - "Pragma: no-cache" is used (like before)
 - "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive" (for older style 1.0-proxies)

C) CONNECT HTTP request over proxy:

 - "Host: [name]:[port]"
 - "Proxy-Connection: Keep-alive"

keywords added

A minor "syntax error" in numerous test files corrected

2005-01-25T21:45:03+00:00

Now the test servers and test cases can run on a custom port number. There's

2004-09-08T08:08:38+00:00

no fixed port numbers in use anymore. Starting now, the default ports the
servers use are 8990 - 8993. There's no option to modify these yet, but
changing the $base option in the top of the runtests.pl script.

Modified the default HTTP Accept: header to only be Accept: /

2004-02-09T12:46:41+00:00

modified to work fine with the new persistant connection working test suite

2003-07-19T23:57:08+00:00

HTTP server

Each test case now specifies which server(s) it needs, without relying on the

2003-04-30T20:25:39+00:00

test number.
